    Introspection. Try it. I swear it does wonders for your life outside the GARM

    Bullshit. Show me one thread I've created for the sole reason of causing division. We're posting in yours.

    I suppose in the same way that people fighting against violence (wars) are also forced into violence themselves, yes.

    I wonder sometimes if the JOFs really watch complete games. If you were to just watch the highlights, Jalen would look incredible.

    GARM always had some sorta **** show going on ... but ... the 24x7 "news" cycles drives "content" creators to post controversial "news" to get clicks.

    Don't be concerned. My life outside the GARM is nothing like my life inside of it.

    Honestly?......Probably The Rockets themselves and their recent irrelevancy. The pendulum will no doubt swing back the other way if they can return this franchise to contender status

    The internet in general has become trash. The GARM was a passion project much like a lot of this stuff was. SubReddits rose and fell faster than these message boards did and they were supposedly the successor. They have largely been reduced to trash posts about consumerist doodads, sympathy seeking narcissists or "good guys" that want clout because they're trying to call out some CEO or famous person who did a thing they dont like. Twitter became that way before Reddit did and it's largely a joke of a platform these days.

    The mods and founders can only do so much to govern and we've all become addicted to arguing on social platforms. It's seeped into here since people can't seem to get their fix on Twitter, Facebook, Reddit or whatever. Don't forget to comment down below and tell me what YOU think of the modern internet I read all the comments it really helps my channel grow.

    The anti-player only fan agenda has a sweet fragrance.

    Nonsense, I only "hate" on player only fans and I call out the misinformation they tend to push.

    None of these. It's the people who just post things without substantiating with facts and just rely on lazy narratives. Also shootout to the people who argue with the same other people about the same things over and over again in multiple threads even though there is no new evidence to further support the claims on either side.

    Its funny to watch this place mimic society at large. Like when people say "this country is terrible, its the worst its ever been and we need to make it great again" while the economy is booming and the serious functions of government being appropriately handled. Here we have a similar "OMG this place is so toxic lets see who is responsible" brainfart and its the same middle aged misers who look around for acknowledgement and want to blame others for whatever mess they perceive vs just looking in the mirror.
